Winning Baseball: "The Three Run Theory."




There is a theory in Baseball Coaching that is widely known as the "Three Run Theory." 

Basically, what this theory means is if you have a Great Coach, your team begins the game leading 3-0, due to practice preparation, playing the game the right way, teaching proper technique, etc.  If your team has a Good Coach, the game is 0-0, and unfortunately for some, if you have a Bad Coach, your team is already losing the game 3-0 before the first pitch is thrown.

This rule also has a multitude of possibilities due to match-ups.  If a Great Coach meets a Great Coach, 0-0.  But if a Great Coach meets a Bad Coach, 6-0 before the first pitch.  Good Coach, Bad Coach, 3-0.  You get the idea.

Now, how does this theory help?  Think about your own team.  As we all know in baseball, numbers don't lie.  Are you a Good Coach, a Bad Coach, or a Great Coach?  The scoreboard will usually let you know.
